From Steam reviews
Review notes
Vertigo 2 is worth a closer look if you want boss rush, solo-friendly, exploration, and chaotic fun.
Best for players who want chaotic fun, liminal, emotional story, and boss rush.
boss-rush
Play styleA major part of the game is learning and beating standout fights.
solo-friendly
FitIt still makes sense as a solo play choice.
exploration
Play styleThe draw is moving through spaces, discovering details, and learning the world.
chaotic-fun
ToneThe appeal is messy, funny, and unpredictable rather than polished calm.
liminal
SettingThe mood sits in uncanny, empty, or dreamlike spaces.
emotional-story
ToneThe story is framed as affecting rather than just plot-heavy.
strong-atmosphere
ToneThe mood, place, and presentation carry a lot of the experience.
replayable
FitThe structure gives reasons to return rather than finish once.
Steam review snapshots
Not in terms of difficulty, but in terms of uncanny, janky-animatronic, horror.It's a game that simultaniously rewards and PUNISHES the player for exploration, as you can be checking out an underwater passage way…The weapons are so unique and creative, the bosses, the levels…I wanted to give a huge kudos to the developer of Vertigo 2 – nearly solo-deving this game while in high school.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by weird, single-player.
